The right tangle themselves in such strange notes where they would've never have defended Boy George during his initial gender-fuck pop-star days, but now that he's a convicted torturer of sex workers, a genocide-denier and a AI-con-artist, he's their martyr.

The business of the British press is the recruitment and promotion of cranks and wingnuts to further their own malicious agendas

I was going to say “Finally” but that might be misinterpreted as “Finally, women have come forward.” No, I mean, “Finally, this has broken through the numerous media barriers that allow men like Leto to get away with it”.

New BBC investigation. Four women accuse Jared Leto of criminal sexual conduct www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Has to be experienced in IMAX because… Mr. Nolan, you have done it again 👏

Enjoyed the new HUMAN VAPOR. Not all of its many twists and turns totally work and it never quite recaptures the thrilling heights of its first two episodes, but it's incredibly ambitious and filled with great performances. Above all, insane to see this story revived. Would happily take more! 😶‍🌫️

I wrote a tribute to Kaylee Hottle, the deaf actress whose performance as Jia was the heart of two of the Legendary Pictures Kaiju films, Godzilla vs Kong and Godzilla x Kong. Killed at 18 in a car wreck. A staggering loss. www.rogerebert.com/tributes/wha...

What Could Have Been: Kaylee Hottle (2007-2026)

From Jean Harlow and James Dean through Simone Battle and Anton Yelchin, entertainment history is filled with instances of performers dying just as audiences

The guy from HOT ROD is a better Scrooge than Johnny Depp

Gosh, I really hope the “protect women and girls” people are going to do something about this. 🙄🙄🙄

Hey folks, In the wake of Kaylee Hottle's tragic passing, we are selling a limited run of "Jia & Kong" prints from our store, with 100% of the profits going to Kaylee's family. Thank you everyone ❤

I have a new bit of writing up on the BFI website, tying into their upcoming No Strings Attached: Puppets on Film season! Fun to explore the use of hand and marionette puppetry in five of Ishiro Honda's kaiju films: www.bfi.org.uk/features/all...

If you post on X, you are an active participant in the richest man in the world’s far-right, racist disinformation campaign. But, you know, gotta get that engagement clout.

I call for a national holiday in Australia and New Zealand as we mourn one of the very best human beings of the past century, who also happend to be quite a dab hand at acting. Mine is one of so many broken hearts the world over - what a fucking mensch.

Remember my head teacher crying in assembly when she told us about the Dunblane massacre. Was proud that there was immediate mobilisation to ensure it couldn’t happen again, and in the years since we have mostly avoided mass violence with guns. The UK must not retreat on gun legislation!

he’s said a lot of abhorrent things, but if there’s anything correct left in British politics, that should wind it up for him entirely and immediately

This is bad even for Rupert Lowe. Because of our gun laws we don’t have active shooter drills in schools and children don’t have to go to their friend’s funerals. MAGA ideology is utter poison Restore Britain leader describes Dunblane tragedy as 'one murder' www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

RIP Tony Rayns, one of the few English-language critics who genuinely knew what they were talking about (most of the time) when it came to East Asian cinema, especially Hong Kong's.

Godzilla Minus One director Takashi Yamazaki has set a secretive 'original epic', Nue, at 20th Century Studios. Read more: www.empireonline.com/movies...

Clearly it would be unfair to make cinephiles choose between me and Pedro Almodóvar. Thankfully, the Barbican scheduled us on separate days to avoid mass outrage
